Buying a ticket requires simple registration, such as which country you are from, your name, passport number, etc., and you will be given a travel map and told which check-in points are there. After taking photos at the mosque, ask GRAP to go to the library. The bell tower and colorful stairs are near the library, so you can check in together. In addition to the clock tower and pink mosque, the private beach on campus is also a must-see spot for internet celebrities at Sabah University. Beautiful bays, white sandy beaches, dense jungles, swings on the seaside... You can sit quietly and look at the sea in a daze, and your heart seems to have gained an indescribable peace and tranquility. 📸Photo check-in points: ❶Pink Mosque: The exterior and the lawn next to it are very easy to photograph, and it is very photogenic on a sunny day. (The Pink Mosque only opens to the public at 2 p.m. If you want to visit, you need to wear local clothes. There is rental service on the first floor) ❷Clock Tower: Just on the Huandao Road in front of the school, it is also the iconic building of the University of Sabah ❸Colorful stairs: Each step is covered with colorful tiles, which is very local. ❹Private Beach Swing: If you like seaside scenery, there are beaches and swings here, which is definitely a good place to relax. ⚠️Tips: ◑It is recommended to wear white or light blue clothes, which will make it easier to take photos. ◑There will be staff near the Pink Mosque to sell university car rental services by asking for tickets.

One of the must-visit places in Kota Kinabalu, the Pink Mosque🩷 This is a place that pink princesses will go crazy over! The most famous photo zones in the Pink Mosque are the 1st and 2nd pictures, but these are the bathroom walls..? 🤣 But I took a lot of pictures because I wanted to take a picture of my life ㅋㅋ 📍Kota Kinabalu Pink Mosque ▫️Entrance fee 10 ringgit ▫️Search for UMS Islamic Mosque (Masjid Universiti Malaysia Sabah)! It is a mosque located in Sabah State University, so there is a distance from the entrance to the mosque, so if you are taking a Grab, get off in front of the mosque! ▫️There is a mango juice truck in front, so be sure to try it! It's really refreshing and delicious ✨ #March travel support event #Kota Kinabalu travel #Overseas travel

#MarchTravelSupportEvent Kota Kinabalu Blue Temple & Pink Temple - If you're good at iPhone editing, this is Bali📸✨ You can't miss out on taking pictures on a trip, right? But Kota Kinabalu Blue Temple & Pink Temple are the best pictures you can take even if you just take random pictures. Here's a tip! 📌 Take a picture with your iPhone and auto-correct → Rotate slightly to the left → Adjust saturation? ✔ Even the color of the water that looks like poop turns into an emerald sea ✔ Even the ambiguous sunset color is reborn as a Balinese sunset It's pretty even if you just take a picture, but if you use this method, you'll get confused whether this is Kota Kinabalu or Bali🔥 ⸻ 📍 How to get to Blue Temple & Pink Temple & Tour Recommendations It's super convenient to go on a local guide tour to Pink Temple, Blue Temple, and Coco Hill (Sunset Swing). They'll pick you up and drop you off, and they'll even take your luggage, so it's even better! We originally planned to just look around the Blue Temple, but we were persuaded by a local to do a full-course tourㅋㅋ 🚗 Course: 1️⃣ Blue Temple - Exotic architecture with a Uzbek feel! 2️⃣ KK Mart (1 hour of shopping) - Souvenir & snack shopping! 3️⃣ Coco Hill (separate entrance fee, originally 90 ringgit → negotiated to 70 ringgit) - The guide was so kind that he took his share of the entrance feeㅋㅋ But the view was crazy. 4️⃣ Xiangchun Seafood - Arrived at a great dinner restaurant! 5️⃣ Filipino Market - Fruit shopping and resort drop off! ✔ Total 380 ringgit (for 4 people) - But why do you recommend it? ✅ They take really good pictures 📸 ✅ Luggage storage + pick-up service has been reorganized 👜 ✅ The guide is friendly (We became friends on KakaoTalk ㅋㅋㅋ He said he would go again next time) For those going to Kota Kinabalu, looking for a photogenic restaurant & easy tour, I highly recommend this route! 💙

Before going to Kota Kinabalu, look for a city tour! Somehow I met a tour guide who was serious about taking pictures It was just a city tour But I just walked around like a snap photo tour😅 1. I♡KK Sculpture (Segama Waterfront) 2. Sabah State House 3. UMS Pink Mosque #March Travel Support Grant Event

🗓️Itinerary: Generally, most people go to Kota Kinabalu by red-eye flights, but the hotel check-in is usually not available until 3pm. Therefore, it is also recommended that friends who arrive in the morning on red-eye flights can find a Chinese driver to pick up the airport and take everyone to the city for breakfast and walk around the city. This is a very good choice. At least you have a basic understanding of the city of Kota Kinabalu. After lunch, check in to the hotel at the right time. I met a good driver who was a part-time tour guide. He took me to the University of Sabah, the Floating Mosque, the Municipal Building, etc., and introduced me to local restaurants. The best thing is that he could exchange Malaysian ringgit for me without sacrificing the real-time exchange rate. It was really conscientious. Check in to the hotel in the afternoon and take a short rest. In the evening, strolling around the night market in the city is also a relief. Day2 In the morning, I chartered a car with a couple to go to the Rafflesia base. I was lucky to see four or five Rafflesias. In the afternoon, I rushed to Magellan Pier to book a ticket to the Kawaka mangrove ferry. You must remember to bargain. Can the mangroves be piled up? The most exciting part is watching fireflies at night, which is particularly spectacular. Day 3 You can book water activities and snorkeling on the surrounding islands. In the evening, I went to Aljung Tan Shangri-La and caught the world's top 3 sunset. It was perfect. Day 4 Sleep until you wake up naturally. If you have time, go to Gaya Road to eat some special snacks. Return to China #Kota Kinabalu Sunset #Sabah Travel

#temple 2024 Sabah trip The most impromptu flash mob💫tour Decide on location two days before departure Buy your ticket one day before departure🛫 Make a hotel reservation that morning Just do whatever you want without thinking too much Day 1 It was already early morning when we arrived on the first day There is no need to take photos or take finger prints or other complicated procedures to pass the customs. It took ten minutes to successfully pass the customs and collect my luggage🧳 I have to appreciate the efficiency of the immigration staff. Probably because I want to get off work earlier🫢 I rushed back to the hotel and ordered Grab takeaway. Day 2 I ate some fish soup noodles 🐟 Ordinary Tongsheng is a little bit air-conditioned🤏 In order to have some attractions in this itinerary Then we arrived at the Pink Mosque of Sabah University to check in. During this period, I was sold by the staff to take a golf cart tour of the university campus. University Park is really big Taking a ride in a car is also a good option After the visit, we went to You Kee to eat Bak Kut Teh. Then go to the very famous Tanjung Aru Beach to have a glass of wine and watch the world-class sunset🌅 Unfortunately it was a bit cloudy that day I couldn’t see the big salted egg yolk When it gets dark, we go to eat seafood Seafood 🦐 fresh but taste mediocre But the price is absolutely amazing There are shrimps, crabs🦀, fish and vegetables for more than 100 Hong Kong dollars This price doesn’t seem to allow for too much fussiness. Among them, the salted egg yolk bitter melon is my favorite Not as crispy as bitter melon at all Salty and crispy drink 🍻First class After eating, go shopping at the mall near the hotel Clear the store at ten o'clock This is the colorful night😌 The hotel Sky bar has a good atmosphere at night Listening to music ended a whole day's journey

#Southeast Asia Travel A must-visit place for Koreans visiting Kota Kinabalu, I visited the UMS Islamic Temple Pink Mosque ㅎㅎ It takes about 15 minutes by car from downtown and you have to buy a separate ticket at the university entrance and go up. You can walk there, but it's a steep uphill road so I recommend taking a Grab. The entrance fee is cheap at 10 ringgit :) 🤍 📍 Pink Mosque 📌 Jalan UMS, 88400 Kota Kinabalu 💰Entrance fee 10 ringgit #Kota Kinabalu #Kota KinabaluTravel #PinkMosque

Traveling? Simple! With qrab, almost any attraction you want to visit costs around RM10. 🏫 Stop 1: University of Sabah Depart from the hotel and take a taxi to University of Sabah. The campus ticket is only RM10, and the internet-famous building, the Pink Mosque (Figure 1), is definitely worth wearing your most beautiful clothes to take pictures. There is also a clock tower (Figure 2) and the internet-famous staircase (Figure 3) on campus. Although they are quite ordinary, they are still great places for taking photos. However, we do not recommend going to the Sabah University Beach (Figure 4) that they recommended because the environment is not ideal. It is recommended to take a taxi to travel on campus because the school is really big. 🕌 Stop 2: Floating Mosque Next, head to the Floating Mosque (Figure 5). It is recommended to go after 14:00 in the afternoon, and the ticket price is also 10 Malaysian ringgits. After changing into Muslim clothing, you can enter this beautiful building for a visit. 🌅 Stop 3: Tanjong Aru Beach Sunset Don’t miss Tanjong Aru Beach at sunset (Figures 6-8). It is recommended to visit between 17:30 and 19:30. The beautiful sunset here changes every moment, making people linger. 🍽️ Stop 4: Philippine Night Market As night falls, the Philippine night market (Figure 9) is a gathering place for a wide variety of goods and seafood stalls. Although this place is mainly for locals and not many tourists, it is definitely a good place to take photos and check in. 🌆 Stop 5: Gaya Street Night Market Finally, Gaya Street Night Market (Figure 10) is your ultimate destination. It is open on Fridays and Saturdays and is crowded with people, but relatively quiet on weekdays. There are not only a variety of delicious foods here, but also a variety of snacks to satisfy your taste buds to the greatest extent. 📸 Photography tips Wear brightly colored clothes to contrast against the pink mosque backdrop. At the floating mosque, don’t forget to change into Muslim clothing and experience a different culture. The sunset at Tanjong Aru Beach is a paradise for photography enthusiasts, so remember to bring your camera. 🍴 Food recommendations The seafood barbecue at Gaya Street Night Market is fresh and delicious. Although it is not recommended to eat the various snacks in the Philippine night market, they are definitely worth a try. 📅 Best time to travel Avoid the rainy season and choose sunny days to travel for the best travel experience. Kota Kinabalu is a vibrant city that can satisfy you whether you want to explore history and culture or enjoy delicious food and beautiful scenery. Get your camera and taste buds ready and come experience the charm of this city!

My friend who visited Kota Kinabalu specifically mentioned that this is in the checklist so we went and it was not difficult to find! Just inside the University Malaysia Sabah (UMS) campus and it was really beautiful. Going in was easy as well, just stop at at guard house and collect your visitor pass, then drive along the road and you will find it. Took some really nice photo oh but sun was really hot so don’t forget your umbrella! #Pinkmosque #Kotakinabalu #Sabah #Tourists

This pink mosque is actually inside the University of Sabah, Malaysia! This mosque is pale pink with white, with blue sky and grass, very girly! And every angle is beautiful, you can take beautiful photos! The University of Sabah is about a 30-minute taxi ride from the city. To enter the university you need to pay the entrance fee of RM5. Keep in mind that entering the mosque hall requires changing into an Islamic long gown, no legs and arms exposed. But checking in outside is perfectly fine. In addition to the mosque, there are other photo spots on campus such as the beach and the rainbow staircase. #globaltravel
